(Heavily modified from Jay's step-brother’s recipe, but he deserves a nod for it.)
1/2 white onion 1 1/4 lb 85/15 ground beef 1 lb breakfast sausage (mild, pork) 28 ounce can roasted crushed tomatoes 7 oz can Casera salsa 15 oz can black beans (I won’t apologize for putting beans in chili, bean haters…) 15 oz can pinto beans 1 Tbspoon garlic powder 2 Tbspoon ground cumin 5 Tbspoon chili powder 3 peppers (jalapeño, Fresno, habanero) Beef broth Salt and pepper to taste Chop onion, brown with ground beef (use a little olive oil if you want), strain and set aside Fry sausage in a pan, shouldn’t need any oil, just heat :) Chop up peppers and sausage Throw everything in large pot, including pan drippings from the sausages (I recommend straining the beans) Add beef broth for liquid to desired thickness Simmer for 45 minutes minimum, stirring occasionally Feel free to double the recipe if you really love chili. Tastes even better the next day, and I hear freezes well. If you are vegetarian, I love you too: substitute the meat with portabello mushrooms and your favorite veggie burger patties. I’ve done this for a Vegan friend and it turned out great. Avocado works really well as an optional topping. |

The secret has been revealed. It's like the scene in Diablo 2 when that old guy released the Demon lord..

Curious on the sausage, you say breakfast sausage, but the most common type is Maple, do you use maple or regular? Do you also have a preference for Pork/Beef sausage?
15% fat |

Nom nom nom.

First you can't Like Blue posts...
Now you can't Request Sticky on Blue threads! EDIT: Can you give metric approximations as well? I'm too lazy to do any sort of conversion at the moment.

1 1/4 lb 15% ground beef 85/15 (meat/fat) is what is typically referred to as "regular ground beef" (it's commonly 80/20 as well). Lean is generally 90/10. Extra lean is 95/5. At least, that's how they're graded in Canada (not sure about down there). I'm glad Jay at least recognizes that chili doesn't traditionally have beans in it, but they definitely don't hurt either, though I prefer kidney beans in chili. And breakfast sausage is just nasty :( <- huge food snob |
